Members of our parish family contribute to the community's well-being through prayer, service and money donations. The opportunities for you to share in prayer and service donations are described in considerable detail throughout this website.
Money donations are used for the maintenance and upkeep of the parish, and they enable our church to provide service to needy families and groups in the community. Many parishioners provide money donations by using envelopes given to registered members, and placing the envelopes in the collection basket each Sunday during Mass. Others prefer to use "electronic giving", whereby contributions are deducted from bank or credit card accounts.
